There is nothing more important than health, and that is why the Duchess of York, Sarah Ferguson, is breathing a sigh of relief now. As revealed by the British press this Saturday, the aristocrat has been told that the skin cancer she suffered from and for which she has undergone surgery has not spread. Very good news, taking into account the delicate season that she has experienced in terms of medical diagnoses.
As we said, the good news about Sarah’s health has come thanks to the Daily Mail. The British tabloid claims that, after undergoing surgery to examine the malignant melanoma they detected, doctors confirmed that that area is now free of cancer cells, as well as the lymph nodes, and believe that they have not spread to other parts of the body. This was stated by someone close to the duchess’s circle to the aforementioned media.
Sarah’s entourage assures that it is “the best result I could hope for”, despite the fact that the duchess will have to continue undergoing check-ups every three months. It should be remembered that this diagnosis was a real blow to Ferguson and his family, since he had just overcome breast cancer when skin cancer was diagnosed. Additionally, she feels very proud of having raised awareness among the population about the importance of having regular check-ups.
It should be remembered that it was last July 2023 when the Duchess of York’s diagnosis was known. It was after she was detected with suspicious moles while she was undergoing an eight-hour mastectomy and reconstructive surgery. On the other hand, last December, dermatologists had to remove several moles and discovered that one was a malignant melanoma. Now, Sarah breathes a little easier knowing that the disease has not spread.
Prince Andrew’s ex-wife bravely faced the new diagnosis. “Naturally, another cancer diagnosis has been a shock, but I am in good spirits and grateful for the many messages of love and support I am receiving,” she expressed after the diagnosis was made public.
This news came at a delicate time for the British Royal Family. The Princess of Wales was hospitalized after abdominal surgery, from which she is already recovering at home, and Charles III was going to have surgery for a prostate problem. However, it was a few days later when it was learned that the sovereign also suffered from cancer. More details about the monarch’s illness are unknown, but it is known that he is undergoing treatment. We will have to wait to know more details about the three diagnoses.
